What information should students receive regarding bus safety rules?

Students should receive clear instructions on boarding, deboarding, and appropriate behavior because these guidelines are essential for ensuring safety while using the school bus. Proper procedures related to getting on and off the bus help minimize the risk of accidents and injuries.

For instance, students need to know to wait for the bus to come to a complete stop before approaching it and to wait until the bus driver signals them before crossing the street. Additionally, establishing rules for behavior while onboard—such as remaining seated, keeping the aisles clear, and respecting fellow passengers—contributes to a safe and orderly environment.

While other options contain important information, they do not directly address the immediate safety responsibilities of students themselves. Understanding how to properly board and exit the bus, along with expected behaviors, directly affects the safety of each student during their bus ride.
